"Let me take her"
The woman fearing to disobey, suf-

down the car, and once the tremulous
woman fancied that she saw him press

woman asked:

Where there is q will there is always way.
Ones deep in the mud as the other in mire;
Don't jump from the frying pan into the fire.
There's no use crying Ger milk that is split;
No accuser is needed by conscience Of guilt.

Whoever it fits. he must put on the shoe.
All work and no play will make Jack . dull

A half loaf is better than no bread at all;
And pride always goeth before a sad fall.
Fast bird and fast find, have two strings to

Coutentluent is better than riches, we know.

You can't make silk purse from out sow's

d Alene country, to take charge Of q
church. The largest gambling hall in
the town was cleared for his accommo-

which Spanish monte was usually dealt
being left for him to stand behind. A
large stock register book was laid on
this, which was supposed to represent
. Bible. The whole town turned out
and the young divine preached pow
erful sermon. In it he strongly
denounced gambling. hoTse-racing,
drinking and profanity. That after
